Sam Smith to perform at Vevo Halloween party

Sam Smith is to perform at the upcoming Vevo Halloween party at Manchester's Victoria Warehouse along with Ella Eyre, Gorgon City and Rixton

Sam Smith and Ella Eyre are to perform at the Vevo Halloween Party.

The 'Stay With Me' hitmaker and 'Waiting All Night' singer have both signed on to play at the upcoming concert organised by the music video and entertainment platform.

The spooky night of music - which will boast a "survivors versus zombies" theme - will also see performances from electronic music duo Gorgon City and pop band Rixton.

Rixton said of their excitement at being chosen: "We can't wait to play Vevo's Halloween party in Manchester! With such an amazing line-up of artists it's going to be an incredible night and not one to miss!"

In addition to Vevo's LIFT artists Sam, Ella, Gorgon City and Rixton, there will also be a special guest performer - who is yet to be announced - and DJs throughout the night.

The announcement comes following the success of last year's Halloween party which saw Iggy Azalea, Bastille, John Newman, Lorde and Nina Nesbitt take to the stage in east London.

Music fans are invited to join the zombie apocalypse and become one of the infected horde at Manchester's iconic Victoria Warehouse on Saturday November 1.

Tickets go on general sale at 9am tomorrow (19.09.14) and cost £5 each - http://www.axs.com/vevohalloween.
